Lee Hyori may be the undisputed queen, but she confessed that she's been feeling left out.
On the 31st's episode of 'Thank You', she revealed, "Honestly, it's been so hard lately. I feel so bad. I can't adapt. Before, I thought it was my area, my thing, but now if I go, I feel left out. It's to the point where when I see really young people, I think, 'They must know who I am, right?'."
She added, "When I go out on ranking shows, I don't feel good with the ranking in general. Maybe it's because I haven't gotten #1. The number one isn't just by the music, but there's also viewer voting and on-site voting. Ten fans came to see me on site. I can't fight idols. They tell me to say, 'Press 3', if my number is 3, along with hoobaes that are 10, 20 years younger, but I can't."
However, she concluded, "But I've been doing music shows all this time, so I can't even say I won't do them anymore and just do concerts. I'm an idol, and I got popular through them. I can't just say I'm not going to go on them anymore. So I go on, but I don't feel good about it. I thought I got stronger over the 3 years and I thought it wouldn't matter if I didn't get #1, but when I'm actually at 'Inkigayo', it's not like that. Since I can't get 1st, I get sad and I see the staff feel down... So I drank soju yesterday because I was down."
Hopefully her win on 'Inkigayo' yesterday changed things for the better!
